Yes, Mahtab, the father was a very suspicious guy. Interesting, being a special agent, he was using a lie dector machine. It’s quirky. Well, being quirky, a father, influenced a poor guy, his daughter’s boyfriend, to a quirky behaviour as well. A guy was trying so hard to be liked, but, alas, he ended up pretty quirky and with this in a blacklist. In reality the guy was an angel! Well, quirky a little bit, like all of us, but an angel.


The bottom line: Don’t prove your unquirkiness as it will always turned out to be an opposite.


Yep, life is quirky;)
